All parts used are required to have full PSO and PPAP Approval. S1 VEHICLES: S1 VEHICLES: are vehicles built to confirm production design intent, validate parts, and prove out vehicle and assembly processes (at the assembly plants when feasible). PPSR’s are required for all non-PPAP approved parts.

Design verification testing should be successfully completed before parts are submitted for S0 Build. These components may be built using hard or soft tools, as determined to be appropriate based on part or process knowledge required.
“Production” means that the product and process design release is complete for the Product and Process Design Complete (PPDC) milestone. S0 VEHICLES: S0 VEHICLES: Prototype vehicles built to provide verification that the production design and the intended production process for components, systems and vehicles meet objectives. This is where the Error Mistake Proofing (EMP) process kicks in. As the first attempt, the SO is used to identify potential issues.
